App Description

aSmartHUD MAP+ is advanced and easy to use vehicle digital dashboard, unified with in-car navigation system where the built-in digital map makes navigating independent of current internet connection availability. Futuristic and stylish screen layout is especially optimized for usage as a HUD unit, projecting the map, speed and route information on your car windscreen.

Other key features:

- HUD MODE
- ONBOARD VECTOR DIGITAL MAP OF UNITED KINGDOM
- ROUTING AND DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS
- TRACK RECORDING
- EDITABLE FIXED AND REDLIGHT SPEED CAMERAS DATABASE
- SHORT-TIME WEATHER FORECAST
- IPOD PLAYLIST REMOTE CONTROL
- TIME, AVERAGE SPEED, ALTITUDE, HEADING, MOVING TIME, etc.
- HALF-TRANSPARENT GOOGLE MAPS SCREEN

- With aSmartHUD you can create and save the driving routes (Google Directions service is used - the same as for the standard Map application) to follow them later, especially in the areas without the internet coverage. Application will display your current position on the route and show the driving instruction for the nearest route point in a turn-by-turn way.
Also you can email the driving instructions of the saved route to any email address.

- Current version includes digital map of UNITED KINGDOM only, but the application is still usable in the areas where the vector map is not provided.

- Tapping the "HUD" menu item mirrors all the text, so if you position the iPhone horizontally under your car's windscreen you can see perfectly readable half-transparent reflection of the picture displayed. We found it much more convenient compared to traditional car dashboards (especially on the roads of Western Europe, which are full of speed cameras and where you need to watch your speedometer all the time). And last but not the least - it just looks cool.  NOTE: this mode works pretty well at night time and twilight, but on direct sunlight the screen brightness can be insufficient.

- aSmartHUD shows color coded distance to the nearest known fixed speed camera, and it's speed limit (if known).

The cameras database includes an information about 21500 cameras in Europe, 2500 in USA, in 1400 Canada and 1200 in Australia.
NOTE: It's not guaranteed all speed cameras in your area are included into the database. However, we will release database updates right after the new information will become available.

- "aSmart HUD" can keep track on 4 speed limits, giving a warning (sound and visual) each time you crossing it. Normally, it's legal speed limits within cities, local roads and high-speed motorways. "Never exceed speed" is the speed you should not exceed under any conditions. For example, it can be a technical limit of your vehicle or the point where government can arrest your driving license.

- Speed history log chart have 4 different display modes.

- Portrait and Landscape screen layouts.

- In Preferences, you can specify different measurement units, display color and sound scheme, screen layout and many more.
